In Microsoft Word, there are primarily two types of page orientations:
- Portrait :
- This is the default orientation.
- The page is oriented vertically, meaning it's taller than it is wide.
- This is commonly used for standard documents, letters, and reports.
- Landscape :
- In this orientation, the page is oriented horizontally, meaning it's wider than it is tall.
- This is often used for documents containing wide tables, charts, images, or presentations.
Key points to remember :
- You can change the page orientation of an entire document or specific sections within a document.
- Changing the orientation affects how the content is laid out on the page.
